Donut - what does it mean?, by graffoto on Aug 4, 2009 16:40:35 GMT 1, The penny drops (or does it) this is fast becoming a much deeper print that initially believed...... Can't wait to see it ITF. I'm loving it more each day. ;D

I thought it might have. The image seemingly has more layers then filo pastry.

Edit: Hah, whoops I see someone already posted it in this thread. I must have been really tired earlier cause I didn't see it.

Donut - what does it mean?, by neale on Sept 4, 2009 20:52:17 GMT 1, (found this posted on one of the 'other' forums) "i think everyone is underestimating the depth of this image .. some may say that it represents a 'tired' stereotype of the old 'highway patrol love affair with their doughnuts' .. i say it goes a little further : "unexpected patterns in the cosmic microwave background โ the relic radiation left behind by the Big Bang points to the fact that the universe is doughnut shaped and finite .... scientists are now convinced that the universe is finite, doughnut shaped and spinning about a central axis of quantum singularity. The quantum singularity keeps the universe stable. It is floating in the Hyperspace in the zero quantum state. Zero point energies dominate the temporal energy variations across the universe." (quote from ScienceToday) This image by Banksy blatantly references the United States desire (and aim) to be not only in total control of our planet ( the New World order ) but to use this as a stepping stone to place themselves in the position of 'policing' the universe itself ! the US has spent alot of time and energy implanting this idea into the consciousness of our planet through the media and is most obvious when looking at films and television from yesteryear eg Star Wars, Star Trek, Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon etc The van in the image represents the closed and highly protected secret societies who work towards this New Universe Totalitarian State (ie the illuminarty, Skull and Bones, Bilderburg Group etc ) .. the outriders are representing the human 'slaves' indoctrinated to actually physically apply and enforce this order for these 'societies' ... and the universe (represented by the doughnut) is what these societies hold up and carry forward into the future , driven upon a vehicle under their control and in a direction of their choice! We 'the people' are of course represented by the hundreds and thousands - note - not millions and billions as the current population stands , but the hundreds and thousands that 'they' wish to reduce the earth population down to, through pre-planned starvation and population control mechanisms, currently being implemented across the globe.. lastly (it may be worth mentioning) the whole universe is being carried forward upon the shoulders of the oil industry .. the petrol driven van .. the bikes.. the rubber tyres etc .. obviously a reference to the money and power and might of these industries and the fact that the ultimate owners of these industries are indeed the main players in the secret societies mentioned (and the ones unnamed in this explanation) So , all you winners out there ... enjoy your print .. and remember to think its just about fat doughnut guzzling pigs is to do the artist a disservice." The great shame about art of any generation imo is it is subject to years of over analysis, which seems to distance ordinary people from art and galleries, to quote Wiz 'its just a fecking donut' He's spot on, Banksy's not a political analyst, he's an artist, we'll probably never know what inspired the piece' but dont spoil it for the people who have one by reading things they cant see because they are probably not there into the image
